Documentary Film-Making

This workshop is an introduction to the genre of documentary film-making. You will work with a professional film-maker to plan, film and edit your own short documentary using broadcast quality mini DV cameras. Working in small teams you will learn how to conduct interviews and vox pops with members of the public and these interviews will form the basis of your final documentary narratives. This workshop will culminate in a screening of the documentaries produced and you will receive copies of your films on DVD.
